Too small, but an interesting example.

In many countries, and across history, universities are the breeding ground of anti-establishment protests. Young people with a strong desire to change the world, not yet shackled by the burdens of society and all that.

Except that in the US, students are chained down with massive debt they can’t escape from, so that they can be kept on a leash.
